THe R.ACe TR.ACK Uncle Miltie Returns F OLLOWING a hunch that Uncle l\Ililtie was in form again, I hustled down to Monmouth Park last weekend and was rewarded by seeing him win the Lamplighter Handicap pretty easily. He left the stall gate slowly, as is his wont, and didn't settle into his stride till he'd gone about half of the mile and a sixteenth, but from that point on his backers had noth- ing to worry about. Although it wasn't as brilliant a performance as his first start of the season, at Jamaica-horsemen are still talking about that one-his race last Saturday was encouraging, for he gave twenty-two pounds to Golden Trend, who finished second; eighteen to Roman Fair, who was third; and plenty of weight to the seven also- rans. As no doubt you remember, Uncle Miltie went all to pieces after that Im- pressive effort in April, and up to a few weeks ago was taking a rest cure on the ] ersey farm of ]. ]. Colando, his owner. You can see with half an eye that the holiday has done him a great deal of good; he has grown and filled out, and I venture to say he is the handsomest three-year-old in training. However, he still puts his off forefoot down in the peculiar, gingerly way he did early in the spring. His next appearance, I ex- pect, will be in the Choice Stakes at Monmouth, a week from Saturday. Monmouth, it goes without saying, is a pleasant change from Footsore Downs; too bad It's such a chore to get there and back from New York. This year, the added attraction-to use a phrase looselY-Is hurdles racing over the turf course in the infield. Some peo- ple actually are enthusiastic about it.

".. - I T grows increasingly clear that Hall of Fame is the Greentree Stable's best three-year-old. Last Saturday, he beat Battlefield, Ruhe, and ten others in the Arlington Classic at Arlington Park in Chicago. It was his third triumph in a row, and he picked up $62,975, more than his total earnings up to then. That'll buy a lot of oats. Battlefield, I gathered from my carrier pigeons, again put up a good show. But then he always does. Unfortunately, cour- 'lge alone won't pull him through, as it did in the Dwyer Stakes, every 51 -of- no exIra ,Ge "THE PRESIDENT' overngl;t-7b .
